suicide squeeze

[shaundeeb]

mid levels of the 35k garunteed the opener and CC both have been loose/bad, but the 5bb raise is out of the ordinary.

i think its a really bad spot for it given his stack and his open raise size... youre way behind way too often here and he's not folding, and the button is usually pretty strong here (and short stacked) as well.

in fact, its like "obviously" bad enough i feel like i must be missing something because youre posting it.

I am a guy who will squeeze with 57s when I feel that the time is right...

but I too would like to chime in that this is an easy muck.

The 2:1 pot odds for a caller, the 5bb raise, and the cold call are all indications that this is a spot to just fold and move on to the next hand.

Ok, so no one else takes a 5bb open as weakness? The cc isn't a higher enough thinker to cc there with AA/KK. I think the 5bb openeres range is 77 and less and some aces and a lot of middle broadway cards. Even if hes calling me 100% of the time it's +cEV to shove there with the overlay we get from antees and the CC.

In my experience.. 5BB's something like 66-JJ, AK.

But then again, the player opening for 5BB's is generally pretty bad and its very tough to assign him a range because he doesn't really know what hes doing.

Usually, 5BB's means he isnt interested in seeing a multiway flop, but is interested in playing his hand which leads me to believe hes almost never folding to your squeeze.

i squeeze way too much, so this is a pretty easy squeeze for me.
